Faculty of Advocates

Read a random definition: continuation

A quick definition of Faculty of Advocates:

The Faculty of Advocates is a group of lawyers in Scotland who are members of the Scottish bar. Unlike lawyers in England, they do not have their own offices, but instead share a library in Parliament House.

Historically, a faderfium was a gift given to a bride from her father or brother on the occasion of her marriage.

A more thorough explanation:

The Faculty of Advocates is a society of lawyers in Scotland who are qualified to represent clients in court. Unlike the English bar, advocates in Scotland do not have their own offices, but instead share the facilities of the Advocates' Library in Parliament House.

John is a member of the Faculty of Advocates and has been practicing law in Scotland for over 10 years. He frequently visits the Advocates' Library to conduct research for his cases.

Faderfium is a historical term that refers to a gift given to a bride by her father or brother on the occasion of her marriage.

When Mary got married, her father gave her a faderfium as a symbol of his love and support for her new life with her husband.

These examples illustrate the definitions of the terms by providing real-life scenarios that help to explain their meanings. The first example shows how advocates in Scotland share resources and work together, while the second example demonstrates a traditional practice of giving gifts to brides in the past.
